Waratahs v Crusaders

[Damo]

I dunno

That maul has broken off with no Tahs players in it. I am not sure but I think maybe it's play on.

@Kirwan I think Fossies boys are going to learn some hard lessons in July.. Particularly up front

He doesn't have to pick the Canta-blacks.

Yeah the loyalty to some players is detrimental to the wider team in my opinion..

[Kirwan]

I was going to say before it was nice to have a game with no cards, but deleted it as I didn’t want to tempt fate. Oh well.

Yeah, you could argue Matera has unbound there but I think it is the right call. Tough for the Tahs that they get the double punishment.

[antipodean]

These commentators have no fucking idea of the laws. How are these retards employed?

[KiwiMurph]

Justin Harrison is horrendous.

Correct call made.

Do any commentators?

[taniwharugby]

Hall need to work his pack better there

[Mattasaurus]

Painful Aussies... They would have been crowing for it if the roles were reversed

I can go with the refs call. I just think there was a split second when the Crusaders split off with no opposition attached.

| agree that if it was the same maul then it had to be a PT and YC.

A maul doesn't end just because there's no defenders.

They got a good coach

[taniwharugby]

@antipodean plus the 8 joined the end the fell off and then came in the side

[Kirwan]

Crusaders haven’t tidied up their play yet.

But Tahs are less clinical too this half.

[hydro11]

Interesting they aren't going to look at that shoulder.

[akan004]

Wasn't that contact to the head?

[antipodean]

Hall's passing is so slow.

Yes it does end the maul. That is unless the defenders intentionally leave the maul, then it continues.

Where the ball carrier splits off from the maul (by himself or with only his own players) the maul does end.

Anyway, I am not really arguing it, I just thought it was interesting.
